We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Valley View cabin! The cabin was clean, perfectly sized for my family of 3, equipped with everything we needed, as well as effective communication from the host. The property was beautiful, easy to navigate, and everything went smooth. Thank you!

Everything was great! Close enough to town for access to some good food. Good views. They are developing some of the other land in the area, but the views still remain fantastic versus anything in the city. Would definitely stay again.

We had a wonderful few days with the family away from the city lights. The property is beautiful and the river access is fantastic. The kids loved splashing around. All of the dogs were so friendly and we even got to hold the week old puppies. Thank you for sharing your place with us!

We had a wonderful relaxing week long vacation, and valley view was our homebase. Loved it all! The view, the property, the owners, the pups, the cabin-all wonderful for our family of 4. So much to do in the area, but dont skip out on a trip down to the river! My kids loved the swings and trampoline and throwing rocks into the river so many wondeful memories made. Glen Rose is full of kind people and lots of history. Hope to return someday. Thank you for sharing your home with us. It was delightful and just what we needed!

The cabin was perfect for a couples getaway. The kitchen amenities were sufficient, ice trays filled and ready, firewood piled up as well. The property is beautiful and secluded. We loved saying hi to the donkeys and watch the deer. Just a few miles from all of the fun activities Glen Rose has to offer. Kay was also wonderful at communicating with us.

The area where this cabin is located is beautiful! It was kept clean however, some updates are definitely needed. The beds were super loud/squeaky when getting in/out. Couch seemed pretty well loved and the cushions wouldn’t stay in place when sitting. The firepit outside also had a hole in it, so we were unable to use it. Just, a very well loved cabin that needs a couple fixings! Other than that, we absolutely loved it. We had no other issues. We really enjoyed the stay and glen rose area.

Awesome location and clean cabin with an amazing view. Several friendly dogs and other animals, as well as a swing set and trampoline were an added bonus. It does have a pretty steep, gravel road to get up the hill to the cabin.

This is such a cute place! Being dog lovers, we absolutely loved all the dogs around, especially big Bob, who dozed on our porch the morning we left, and then literally led us on a loop trail through the woods and down to the river. Thank you for having the space heater in the extra bedroom! Everything was great and we really enjoyed meeting the owner out on his ATV. Good luck with the puppies! You might want to look at the drain in the bathroom. It seemed to be draining quite slowly. The property is just beautiful, thank you for telling us how to get down to the river, and thank you for an excellent stay!

Cozy Scenic Cabin

Our family went for a Father’s Day weekend getaway and thoroughly enjoyed our cabin and the Brazos House Retreat property. We had such an enjoyable visit that we decided to make this an annual event. The view is stunning, that swings were fantastic, and we made good use of the fire pit and the wood provided.

Would highly recommend this cabin for anyone wanting to relax and enjoy the quiet. The cabin was very clean and well furnished. The porch was wonderful to enjoy evening relaxing and morning coffee. Wildlife was plentiful. The host was wonderful!
